About Avalokiteshvara
Avalokiteshvara, the Bodhisattva of Compassion, personifies the boundless compassion of all enlightened beings. His vow to save all beings from suffering and delusion is central to his spiritual path. According to Buddhist mythology, Avalokiteshvara's desire to guide beings towards enlightenment was so strong that he pledged to split his head into a thousand pieces if he faltered in his mission. When his zeal waned, his head did indeed split into a thousand pieces. In response, the Buddha Amitabha compassionately brought him back to life, gifting him with eleven heads and a thousand arms, each symbolizing his undying compassion and commitment to saving all sentient beings.
In this Thangka, Avalokiteshvara is depicted with his thousand arms, each bearing an eye at the center of the palm to symbolize his infinite wisdom and awareness. Of his eleven heads, ten are peaceful, representing his gentle and compassionate actions, while one head is wrathful, reflecting that sometimes compassion manifests in forceful and protective ways. His outstretched arms and the eyes on his palms symbolize his unyielding desire to reach out to those lost in the cycles of samsara and the clarity with which he sees all beings' suffering.
